Own-it at Illumini: shedding light on copyright September 15, 2010

As part of Illumini Event 2010, Own-it is organising a seminar on copyright for artists. The event will be an introduction to law for artists whose artistic practices are outside the more traditional art forms, such as conceptual, appropriation or installation art. Do installations attract copyright? How can you protect your work from being copied or stolen even if it's just an idea to be executed by others? How can you ensure it is properly displayed and you are credited? What do you need to look out for in contracts? Do you need permission to display or perform your work? To find out more about this free event visit the Own-it website.
